This webinars covers everything you need to know about planning, purchasing, and implementing Hyperconverged setups with VMware VSAN. It’s no longer out of your reach! If you’re interested in VMware’s VSAN technology, this is the webinar for you!

Q: Can I enable VSAN Deduplication and Compression across different disk groups?

No, the objects must be within the same disk group for this to work correctly.

Q: What about VSAN Cluster Scaleout Capabilities? Can I easily add disks or hosts, or am I done adding these components once my VSAN is built out?

Disks can absolutely be added to scale out your VSAN relatively easily through the console. If you are planning to add hosts though, you will need to put your environment in maintenance mode, the networking will need to be updated to include the new host to enable virtual SAN traffic on the NIC for the new host.
